A site visitor just let us know that Don Henley will be playing in Primm, NV on August 11th. Tickets go on sale tomorrow!
We're spending some of our off time this summer tightening up parts of the site. We've fixed links and added a few things to our page celebrating the band's legendary performance on New Year's Eve 1999.
Thanks to everyone who emailed to let us know about these Wireimage photos. You'll have to go look at them on their site as Wireimage really frowns on people posting their pictures. They are great!
Sandy alerted us to the fact that the Starkey Hearing Foundation now has photos up on its page from the gala this weekend. There are two of Glenn:

Quote of the Week: "Strive for perfection; Accept excellence" -- Glenn Frey
There's not a lot going on this week. The band has been in the studio working on the upcoming album so things have been a bit sparse. Here are a few tidbits for you, though.

Rick wrote to let us know about a new book that may be of interest to Eagles fans. Some of you may remember that Joe was here in Austin during the South by Southwest music festival to support his friend, photographer, Tom Wright. Well, Mr. Wright has a new book out. It's called "Roadwork: Rock and Roll Turned Inside Out." Rick let us know about the Eagle-y parts. It's due out on July 1st and can be ordered from Amazon:This Week in Eagles History

Site Stats this Week
Okay, we've been learning things with our new hardware and software and have started playing around with a few things. Here's a short clip of Don accepting an International Rock Award in 1991. He couldn't be at the ceremony and sent this video in. This is from one of our oldest Don videos. The clips on it are 15+ years old so the quality isn't the greatest, but there's some great stuff there. We've always loved Don's playful nature on this particular clip.
This is just a teaser for what we have planned for July. To celebrate Don's 60th birthday and to help fill out our Don Henley site, we'll be adding 60 things to the site in honor of Don's wonderful life and career. Stay tuned for that!

So, we've been having some trouble doing video for a while and finally updated our hardware and software. We have some new options now and are wondering if people are interested in them. So, let us ask you come questions.
Would you like video encoded so that you can load it on your iPod?
Are you interested in custom ringtones for your phones?
What would you like to see us do with audio and video? Remember, this is your website!
We've been learning a lot about podcasts in education (just went to a session on Garage Band this morning) and were wondering if this was something people here would be interested in? Would you be interested in being able to download a podcast about the Eagles? If so, what would you want in it? News? Commentary? History?
Would you want to be able to call in and give your own comments on a song or album or Eagle?
It's kind of exciting to think about all of the nifty technology that is out there and if this is something the community is interested in, we're happy to give it a try.
Let us know in the comments below.
Ulla was kind enough to send us her copy of Eagles Music in Review. This is a DVD released in Europe of music critics talking about the Eagles. We've scanned some photos and text from the booklet that came with the DVD. Enjoy!
